<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mr. Coin Lover, post: 553690, member: 16060&quot;]How did I ever make it past a teenager? Both my parents smoked, then they drove me around in the car with no seatbelts (sometimes my dad had one too many), and I don&#039;t think bicycle helmets even existed. We had a cistern in the basement with the down downspots from the roof of the house connected to catch the rain coming down on the asbestos shingles while I nice and dry in the lead painted house. There has been a lot of activity lately concerning Lincoln himself, the new commemerative, and the new cent designs.&nbsp; Lot of activity here on Coin Talk concerning all of this to include more on the Memorial Cent lately. I will venture to say there are a lot of &quot;new Lincoln collectors venturing into them for a lot of reasons.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think the cent will fall by the wayside for at least a few more years.&nbsp; I didn&#039;t always feel that way, but millions are returning to circulation due to the times we live in, so the mint has to produce less at least probably for the next few years.&nbsp; Selling the new cent rolls at the price the mint is getting for them doesn&#039;t hurt either.&nbsp; I think the paper dollar will fall by the wayside before the cent, and from a pure economic standpoint concerning our tax dollars this would be better.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
